So he couldn't bring himself to mention the misery of the Carter years, huh?

I think there are a lot of us who would like to forget the Carter years

But we can't because it's still haunting us today

[nutmeg]

Well, we still have Petah Jennings... he'll probably still be around for several years.

[BigSkyFreeper]

This show went from blasting Reagan and Bush 41, all the way to 9/11 in the span of one segment?!? WTH? The whole thing is nothing but Dan's self-anointed arrogance, condescension, and taking pot shots at Republicans and Conservatives. That is it in a nutshell.

[The Raven]

I missed Dan Ra^ther's last show !!! Oh my !!!

[Carolinamom]

Every time I have to flush twice I use Carter's name in vain.

[infidel29]

HILARIOUS!!

[deport]

I'm glad you're having coffee with that desert. It would be mighty dry without the coffee.

LOL...... yep it would be wouldn't it.

I read a book recently called The Real Jimmy Carter. It was an eye opener about just how many dictators he has aligned himself with.

Even Time magazine is quoted in the book as saying that Carter dangerously skirts what we used to call treason.

Thanks...will rerun a couple in Today's Toons 3/10/05.

[Mo1]

On Hannity & Colmes .. they are going to show the results of Paula Jones' lie detector test

HINT ... she passed it :0)

[nutmeg]

20 minutes left of the CBS Evening News on the West Coast, tribute is airing at the moment in the Mountain Time Zone.

Thanks. Yeah, that's what I thought... It runs 6:30pm ET, CT, MT, PT.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I say Carter's name in vain too, after using the Bill Clinton monogrammed turlet paper.

[daybreakcoming]

*** On Hardball they're saying his leaving is making conservatives cheer tonight.***

So, in effect they are saying that conservatives are the only ones who care about truth in reporting. Works for me.

[BigSkyFreeper]

It's on at 6:30ET/PT 5:30CT/MT.

I read a book recently called The Real Jimmy Carter. It was an eye opener about just how many dictators he has aligned himself with.

I heard about that book

It's on my list of books to read

As for Carter ... I watched a PBS Documentary of him ... they talked about how he had a 25% approval rating as President .. BEFORE THE IRAN HOSTAGES

Well, on the San Diego local channel it's
time slot is 6:00-6:30PM.

[redrock]

Ok...good..the 'figurehead' is now longer doing his talking head act and reading the evening news.

But it doesn't really matter since the people who supported him...who allowed him to spread the lies etc...are STILL in every news room on tv.

They will just find another talking head to do the same job as Rather.

Plus...I believe that Rather will STILL be doing something on CBS. TOO many Liberals still trust him.......

6:00-6:30PM on local San Diego cBS affliate.
Weird, huh?

[BigSkyFreeper]

The only bright spot of this whole facade was the footage of Dan getting beaned at the 1968 DNC convention in Chicago.

[nutmeg]

It's on at 6:30ET/PT 5:30CT/MT.

Oh, my mistake! Thanks for that info. I have traveled several times to places in the Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones... I just don't make a habit of watching Dan Blather. ;-)
